The period of use was approximately 10 months for each type of apron. The experiment was carried out to compare between the durability and any other points of difference of the two types of aprons as well as to investigate into future apron design. The results were as follows: 1) The 65% polyester/35% cotton blend apron showed less discoloration by sodium hypochlorite solution than did the 100% cotton cloth aprons. 2) All of the 100% cotton aprons (N=48) remained stained while 57 of the 60 aprons made of 65% polyester/35% cotton blend remained stained. 3) The fibers of the 100% cotton aprons (N=48) became frayed and had holes. None of the 60 65% polyester/35% cotton blend aprons became frayed or had holes. 4) The 65% polyester/35% cotton blend apron showed excellent durability and cleanliness properties. 5) It is necessary that the design of the operating apron be changed to thoroughly cover the arms and neck, and to have enough length to cover the knees when the operator is seated on an operating stool.}, pages = {149--155}, title = {感染防止対策としての診療用エプロンの使用 第2報 生地の素材の違いによる耐久性の比較とデザインの変更について}, volume = {22}, year = {1996} }
